In 1983, a young boy goes missing from Hawkins, Indiana. When his family, friends, and the police search for him and for explanations for his disappearance, they stumble upon an incredible mystery involving top-secret government experiments, supernatural occurrences, and a unique little girl. Season two of Stranger Things kicks off in 1984. Although Will Byers (Schnapp) has been rescued from the Upside Down, the locals are still disturbed by the horrors of the Demogorgon and the secrets of Hawkins Lab. Something bigger and more malevolent will threaten those who survived the terror of 1983.

As of August 22, 2017, Stranger Things was reportedly renewed for a third season and the creators said they have plans for season four.

On December 1, 2017, Netflix confirmed the Stranger Things season three renewal. Stay tuned for further updates.

Telly’s Take

Fans don’t have to worry whether Netflix will cancel or renew Stranger Things for season three. Back in August, the Duffer Brothers said there would be a third installment. They also said they’re likely to end the series with season four. Of course, if this chapter misses the mark and drives off viewers in droves, that could all change. Flying blind, my gut says I should make other dinner plans though, and that this supernatural series is staying put. While I don’t have Stranger Things season two ratings to monitor, I’ll keep an eye on the trades and update this page with breaking developments.
